How to make beautiful headphones yourself
If you are tired of regular headphones for your phoneor mp3 player and want something new and bright, then it makes sense to do some decorating. Decorating headphones will make them original and bright. It can be done in several ways, let's consider the most accessible of them.
The first method is painting with varnish.We stick a thin adhesive tape on the headphone wire, leaving small gaps (3-7 cm). We paint them with nail polish or some suitable paint, using different colors.
After drying, remove the tape and geta beautiful multi-colored wire with white inserts. This headphone decor looks amazing, but there is one drawback - sooner or later the nail polish will peel off the plastic and you will have to do the decorating again. You can, of course, find a durable paint, but it is not easy at all. The second way is decorating with a thermo-mosaic. We buy a multi-colored thermo-mosaic from 1 to 4 cm long in any children's store. We cut it on the side with a blade or a stationery knife, then put it on the headphones, choosing a combination of colors to your taste.
You can leave it like this, but it's better to heat it up a little.wire and crimp the thermal mosaic so that it holds better. Just don't overdo it, because the wire is sensitive to high temperatures. In the end, you should get this beauty.
And by the way, this decor will last very well.long, perhaps even longer than the headphones themselves will last. The third method is to braid the headphones with a thread. A relatively complex method, you won't get it perfect the first time, so be prepared to learn and redo it several times. But the headphones will be warm, which will be a nice bonus for those who often wear them under a T-shirt.
How to braid a thread around a wire, goodshown in the diagram below. You need to secure the thread and start making knots until you reach the end. At the end, make another knot so that the weaving does not unravel.
For these purposes, you can use any thinyarn (iris, floss, etc.). The fourth method is to pass the wire through the zipper. This is not so much a decoration as it is to protect the wires on the headphones from getting tangled. It turns out original, but the appearance is not for everyone.
How to sew a wire into a zipper is clearly shown in the picture.We would recommend using a zipper with plastic teeth, as metal ones will be constantly cold, and wearing headphones in the cold will become completely impossible.
